The univariate analysis presented impact of UTRN expression, T stage, N stage, M stage, clinical stage, Clark level, age, ulceration, new tumor event, cancer status and race on overall survival in melanoma. Additionally, the multivariate analysis demonstrated the significance of the effect of UTRN expression, age, ulceration and cancer status on overall survival in melanoma
